Most people agree that collaboration tools in latex lag behing word/gdocs.
LyX has track changes, but it's very hard to convince collaborators to use
it.
It'd be good to keep an eye on this. Office will come up with online
versions for Office 2010. If every other tool has a cloud version, LyX will
be perceived as old-style and it'd be even harder to convince collaborators
Rich xml formats with overlapping features allow conversions to be done
with xslt.
Perhaps google docs can be used as a collaboration back end, with xslt
conversion to lyx's new xml format locally.
